Return of the God-Pharaoh - strategies

Please post your strategies here for RotGP: planeswalkers and decks used for the various nodes, and please leave some deck suggestions that aren't full of mythics, as a lot of players only have a small number of them. Since RotGP seems for the most part to be easier than ToZ was, I think most of the ideas shared will be concerning node 3.3, which is tougher than the old one, IMHO.

last time on nodes 1.x and 2.3 i used Koth, and for 2.1, 2.2, 3.1, and 3.2 i used Tezz2. This time i might use the same ones, but my decks will be a bit different, as i have gotten a lot of new cards in the last two weeks...

this will be only the 2nd running of this event, so good luck to all...

Key cards:Shefet MonitorLay Claim (keep one in you hand and use it on the Wildfire Eternal)Drake HavenSphinx's Tutelage (the most important card, you want to cast this one even before cast the Drake Haven, will slow down Nicol Bolas every time you cycling)

The rest are cheap cycling cards, I am current running:CensorBeneath the SandsDissenter's DeliveranceDesert of the MindfulHieroglyphic IlluminationVizier of Tumbling Sands(not necessary for 3.3, could replace with Greater Sandwurm)

I have to admit the God Pharaoh event is quite likeable due to basically giving me incentive to try out different deck strategies ( as opposed to the ToZ, where I run down all Node 3 bosses with the exact same Cast Out deck). Though this is coming from someone who doesn't have Drake Haven.

3.2.... Just about any deck with lifelink or such will do since Razaketh's ability helps clear up his own board.

3.3.... My personal favorite since I have sooooo many planeswalkers I can use:Chandra 1 is one of the best options since her abilities can shoot the face directly. If his Inferno Jet or Wildfire Eternal is acting up, counter with Aetherflux Reservoir (in fact, having Aetherflux Reservoir is an excellent idea in a creatureless deck)Second favorite is Nahiri/RW Ajani, since you can combine Approach + Jet for massive damage (especially since Approach scales)Sarkhan is an oddball favorite with his Underhanded Designs and Shadows of the Past (although Shadows' 2 shield usually renders is next to useless most of the time), plus, again, Inferno Jet.Sorin technically can run Underhanded Designs and Approach, but his abilities are absolutely useless here (at least Nahiri has her 2nd, Ajani has his ult, and Sarkhan has his 1st), so I recommend against using him unless you really don't care.Low-ish level Zendikar Gideon is a somewhat good idea also since his 1st ability makes a creature that doesn't last until your next turn, on top of being able to run Approach. At level 4, his 1st ability is a liability, so if you have overleveled him, don't use.Dovin is also a favorite when considering Approach, thanks to the fact that he has Strategic Planning that allows you to dig for Approach faster for cheap (and in case that Strategic Planning shows you multiple Approaches, that works too.) And his 2nd ability also works as more card draws if you so desire.

...

Having said that, though, I just realize that almost all strategies to take down Bolas utterly requires rares at least, if only to speed up the process. Possible to make a nonrare deck for this?
